TheScreenplayWriters.com opens yet another chapter. From today we start yet another new service. We have set up our state-of-the-art storyboard artist studio. You can hire storyboard artists from us at the best rates anywhere in the industry.  $50 per frame for B/W storyboard, and $100 per frame for color.

Using storyboard artists for your screenplay is one of the best ways you can visualize your movie much before the movie is actually made. It can be best described as hand drawn art (nowadays digital art is also seen) that look like comic strips or graphic novels. Frame by frame, they depict the screenplay. At a glance a screenplay storyboard may book like a comicbook.

The filmmaker wants to take a look at the screenplay as it will look from the lens of the camera. As such the role of storyboard artists is enormous. Sometimes, due to budget constraints, only some select scenes are made into storyboards.  Especially the more expensive, outdoor and ‘visual’ scenes.

Not only visualizing; storyboards have helped filmmakers locate potential problems with scenes before they are actually shot, and correct them.

That should not give you the impression that storyboard artists are used only for big budget movies.  In fact at $50 or $100 a frame it is really dirt cheap, considering the benefit.

It is also a fun way of making a film.
